Retro bag made of quilted squares. Embroidery designs from Sew swell . I love these bags, although I always forget how to sew it together.

Beautiful!!! May I ask where you got the bag pattern?

Oooops! Didn't read the comments before I asked the question! I think Toogie answered my question.

lovely embroideries and rounding up the squares with the beautiful fabric really gave it style.

new take on a lovely older style. I do love it.

This is great!

Cuties, go to You Tube and type in quilted rag bag. There is a video showing how to make one, the frayed edge way, out of charm packs. Then there is another video, type Handmade bags. This is another bag made by the same lady.


Also, years ago kennykreations.com gave us a pdf and I think it had redwork blocks. I finally located my pdf on one of my USB sticks, the designs may have been sold separately. It looks like the Sensational Sashiko bag they have there, if I remember right.
Anyway, thought maybe you may want to check these places out.
I just love lique's print fabric she used for this....I wonder where she found it...

I got it from my quilting class. So I am afraid I am unable to share the pattern.

Kay I thought Kenny Kreations had it at one time, I am not certain. Google if you know the name of it. I'm sure there is a pdf free somewhere.
